We don’t have a fountain of youth. But we do have what the experts say are the keys to a longer, healthier and happier post-work lifetime.
Speaker for Thursday, February 5, 2026
The big picture: The Y’s Men will host a candid conversation at this Thursday’s regular morning meeting about Westport’s future. How the town will grow, how it’s governed, and how we make this town feel like home for everyone.
Driving the conversation: Community builder Jay Norris, founder of Westport10 and a member of The Westport Library board, returns to share how connecting Black residents and allies is reshaping the conversation about belonging in town. Jay will be the featured speaker at this Thursday’s regular morning meeting.
He’ll talk about what has changed since he last spoke to the Y’s Men, the challenges that remain, and why he believes our children’s experience of Westport will be the real measure of success.
Y’s Men Thursday morning meetings are in Hoskins Hall downstairs in the Saugatuck Congregational Church, 245 Post Road East in Westport. Coffee, donut, and bagel social hour begins at 9:00 am, business meeting at 10:00 am, speaker at 10:30 am. Come early and meet your fellow members. Guests are always welcome.
Just a friendly reminder that speaker presentations on Thursday mornings wrap up when the Q&A session is done. Please stay put until then. If you need to leave during the Q&A, try to find a spot in the back so you can quietly exit. Also, let’s keep the back of the room quiet until the Q&As are all over.
